5. How to use the AAT
 Power on all equipments and use the test button on the AAT Driver to check the
tracker. Check to ensure the four pointing directions are basically correct and the
red RX LED on the AATDriver flashes continually.
 It takes time for the GPS to search satellites. Wait for a while and check the GPS
status according to the flashing frequency of the yellow LED on the AAT Driver. The
higher the frequency, the better the GPS status. In the best condition, the yellow LED
will stay lit. Check to ensure a good GPS positioning status before the next step.
 Place the plane as close as possible to the tracker and press the SetHome button on
the TeleFlyOSD module for about three seconds. The tracker will play a “Beep...”
sound, indicating the current position has been set as “Home”
. At the same time, the
red LED on the tracker starts to flash, and the antenna should pitch up to a 30
degree angle. That means the tracker is in Stand-By for tracking.

You can manually spin the tracker towards the take-off direction while it is in the
standby mode to ensure the best angle of signal reception in the take-off phase,
because the tracker won’t start tracking unless the plane is 10 meters away.

Take off your plane now. Once the plane leaves the tracker 10 meters away, the red
LED on the tracker turns off and the tracker immediately starts tracking (the tracker
will not stop tracking even if the plane flies back to within 10 meters).
Notes:

Before take-off make sure the AATDriver is not in test mode (the red RX LED on
the AATDriver will stay lit in Test mode) and that the tracker is not in Offline
mode (the red Off-Line LED on the tracker will stay lit in Offline mode). In both
of these special conditions, the tracker will not track the target.

If the downlink is broken or the GPS is in a very bad status after SetHome, the
tracker will play the “Beep...Beep...” sound and the red LED blinks, warning you
that the tracking capability has been lost. In this situation, you can spin the
tracker by hand towards the proper direction if necessary (pitch angle will
maintain the angle before loss of signal). The system will automatically resume
tracking as soon as there is a valid signal again
.
